Navarre, Florida 32566


To whom it may concern,


Hi, my name is Cindy Sims and I am seeking employment in your establishment. I have been a nurse for the past 8 years now working as a floor nurse passing out medications and I have worked my way up to Unit Manager and then Director of Nursing.

I am currently available for work, and I want to move in a different direction of the nursing field, away from medication management, towards the administrative, supervisor or Drs. office setting. If you have anything that meets these qualifications please consider me as a potential employee. I will look forward to hearing from you.


Sincerely,
Cindy Sims
